BetsyTacyConvention

Betsy-Tacy | Maud Hart Lovelace

Hello from Deep Valley and Betsy Ray's house! Planning for the #BetsyTacyConvention has kicked into overdrive and your fearless committee has gathered in Mankato to finalize some details for our event this fall. Having attended multiple conventions in the past, I can't stress how incredible it is to be in these spaces and see the real-life inspiration for some of my favorite books. Will I see you in October? Registration link is in the comments!

Ruthiella I‘ve only read the first three books as an adult, but yes, that house is 100% familiar! 😃 (edited) 3w

Emily of Deep Valley: A Deep Valley Book | Maud Hart Lovelace

Save the date, #BetsyTacy fans! The next Betsy-Tacy Convention will be held this year in Mankato, MN in honor of the birthday girl, Deep Valley's Emily Webster! More information to come on speakers, workshops, and activities, but rest assured- if you've never visited Betsy's house, sat on the famous bench, or gallivanted around Lincoln Park (”that pie-shaped wedge!") - you don't want to miss this chance. #BetsyTacyAndTib #MaudHartLovelace

LeahBergen It was SO much fun. There was a terrifying moment when I discovered the house museums would be closed on the weekend I was there but I contacted them and ended up getting a private tour (with some other people who showed up, too). Phew! And I also managed to do some damage in the little gift shop. 😆😆 3mo

Andrea313 @LeahBergen Amazing!!!! I'm so glad someone was able to come through and give the tour! ❤️ 3mo

MaureenMc My daughter and I are going to try to make it! We were just talking about it again over the weekend. 🤞🤞 3mo

Andrea313 @MaureenMc Amazing! Fingers crossed that we meet in Deep Valley! 🤞❤️ 3mo

Listen up, #BetsyTacy fans! The next B-T Convention is coming for us! Mankato 2025, will I see you there? #MaudHartLovelace #BetsyTacyAndTib #BetsyTacyTib #EmilyOfDeepValley #DeepValley

MaureenMc I did not know this convention existed. Is it annual?? I am seriously considering trying to make this work. Thanks for posting! 1y

LeahBergen Oh, this would be fun!! 🤩 1y

Andrea313 @MaureenMc It happens every few years- 2009, 2012, and 2018 have been the most recent. There was supposed to be one in 2020, but we all know how that ended. Finally, finally it's coming around again, and I'll be sure to keep posting about it! If you're in Facebook, you can follow "The Betsy-Tacy Convention" for updates. 1y

quietjenn Oh, maybe? Plenty of time to make plans and it would be so fun … 1y

Andrea313 @quietjenn YES, do it! I love that the date is announced so far out, plenty of time to make those plans.... 1y

MaureenMc @Andrea313 I followed them on FB. I mentioned it to my daughter & she is definitely interested! 1y

Andrea313 @MaureenMc Yay! So hope to see you there! 1y

Betsy and Tacy Go Downtown | Maud Hart Lovelace

"She thought of the library, so shining white and new; the rows and rows of unread books; the bliss of unhurried sojourns there." #BetsyTacyConvention #betsytacy #maudhartlovelace
